Question:

how much aggregate/ cement for a cubic meter of concrete?

We need to concrete our forge floor, we need to mix it ourselves as we are in the middle of nowhere so ready mix can't be delivered. Can anyone tell us how many bags of cement and how much of aggregate for a cubic meter?

for a 4000 lb. mix you will need 6 bags of cement (564 lbs.) 1,452 lbs. of sand and 1656 lb. of gravel...this is from the batch plant for 1 cu. yd. ...when i mix by hand , i mix by volume...1 bag of cement is 1 cu. ft...so for every 1 bag of cement i would add 3 cu. ft. of gravel and 2 cu. ft. of concrete sand...by the way i have yet to see a place the trucks cant deliver it...
